Energy

In 2011 LCON set up Oxford North Community Renewables (ONCORE) to install solar panels on large roofs in North Oxford. The first project was to fund the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on the roofs of The Cherwell School.

ONCORE raised over £150,000 through community investment, to fund an installation of around 250 panels (50kWp) which will now produce cheap, clean electricity for Cherwell School for at least 25 years.
